Type of article: Article

Summary

THE DEFINING EQUATIONS ARE COMBINED WITH THE PROPER SIMILARITY RELATIONS TO DEVELOP A MATHEMATICAL MODEL THAT CAN BE USED TO DESCRIBE THE OPERATIONAL CHARACTERISTICS AND PERFORMANCE LIMITATIONS OF SUCH A HEAT PIPE. THE PAPER STARTS WITH A REVIEW OF THE RECENT EXPERIMENTAL WORK, IT FORMULATES THE GOVERNING EQUATIONS, AND PROCEEDS THROUGH THE DEVELOPMENT OF A COMPUTER MODEL. PRELIMINARY TESTING OF THE COMPUTER MODEL WAS CARRIED OUT TO ENSURE THAT IT ACCURATELY REFLECTED THE HEAT PIPE PERFORMANCE. ONCE THEMODEL HAD BEEN VERIFIED, IT WAS USED TO DEVELOP AN OPTIMUM DESIGN FOR A SMALL BELLOWS HEAT PIPE.
